    I’ve seen one of these in person and the screen is super nice.

    Is it worth buying if you don’t have any gameboy cartridges and would only use it for roms?

      It wasn’t for a long time, but apparently they were able to crack it for emulation. That said, the whole appeal of the Analogue was for the genuine, native playback of physical cartridges. Emulation doesn’t seem to have basic features you’d expect from an emulation device like save states or fast-forward. If I were you, I’d go for something like the RG35xx or the Miyoo Mini +
